Sometimes I just have days where I really, really need to be reassured that people still like or want me or want to be around me and I feel bad because I can’t communicate this need to people but I know they can’t possibly instinctively know when I need this reassurance

In this video I discuss Mike Huckabee’s comments, my experience as a trans woman using the women’s restroom and how transphobia/queerphobia is taught to children who of course become adults like Mike Huckabee who believe that trans women are predators.

Used to prevent calves in the dairy industry from nursing their mother’s milk so there will be more of it to sell to humans who have no need of it and for whom it is unhealthy. And the calves, of course, are enslaved like their mothers or slaughtered for veal. What a strange, tragic world we’ve created. What a kind, generous and peaceful alternative to it being vegan provides!

#borderlinebrilliance

• Aren’t “brilliant”
• Aren’t “beautiful”
• Lash out at people impulsively
• Are addicted to drugs and/or alcohol
• Cannot get treatment
• Don’t have recovery as an option
• Cannot control their impulses
• Hurt people and don’t know how to be “good” people and feel like giving up on trying
• Are in jail, homeless, or institutionalized
• Are made to feel this month isn’t for you

You deserve advocacy, too, just as much, if not even more so. This is your month, too. Pretending you don’t exist and don’t deserve better is NOT the answer. Sometimes we hurt people. Sometimes we’re not good people. Abolish the idea that this means you aren’t a part of mental health advocacy. I’m here for my fellow borderlines. All of them.
